Did you love the house I featured showing The White Company's Christmas 2012 collection as much as I did?

Want to see more....much, much more? {Like, enough to satisfy the stalker in you?...Yes, I know it's there...} Then come on over to the very lovely Relics blog today and take a peek at how to get the look.

Before we dive headlong into all that 2013 has to offer, shall we take a moment to glance back over what has been an extraordinary year on the pages of Modern Country Style?

30 for 30 was a series I ran earlier this year, when I was five months pregnant:30 items mixed into 30 different outfits over 30 consecutive days...phew! Just click on the outfit of your choice to be taken to that very post for more shots and details of the clothes.

{All you eagle-eyes out there will have spotted that there are only twenty-five photos.

That's cos we didn't take photos on five of the days...but I did still wear different outfits. Honest!}

And, to answer the question that so many of you have asked, YES, there will be lots more Modern Country Fashion a-coming your way, as well as the usual lovely mix of renovation, inspiration and creation!

Wouldn't it be lovely if we could all sit down together in this gorgeous Modern Country Dining Room and sit and while away the afternoon chatting over whether we would hang that mirror on the wall (too dangerous?) or leave it leaning there for the sake of aesthetics....and then whether linen slip-covered chairs are as hopelessly impractical as they seem? Yes, you can wash them but are the blackberry jam squished-in stains ever going to disappear? My sensible-mummy-eye tells me a big Fat NO.

But isn't that precisely what would be so enjoyable? We could toast in the New Year making the very most of the hostess' kindness, and then skidaddle the moment it came to any hint of tidying up....and onto the next house, I say!
